  • PublishedNovember 8, 2018

Paris Saint-Germain have opened a probe into claims that potential young recruits were subject to racial profiling, a source close to the club said on Thursday.

“We have opened an internal investigation,” the source told AFP, after the claims made by French investigative website Mediapart, who cited documents from the latest series of Football Leaks allegations.

According to Mediapart, between 2013 and the spring of this year, PSG’s scouting department filled in evaluation forms on young players that included stating their ethnicity. Their origin was to be described as French, North African, West Indian or African.
